Chapter 179: Richelieu's Dismount
Early in the morning
The dark curtain was pierced by the xenon lamps on the bridge of the giant ship, and the long whistle sounded for the first time in this place shrouded in gunsmoke and war, and Richelieu was slightly reassured by a message of hope.
I thought that the admiral who came to reinforce would arrive this morning, but I didn't expect to see the ship in the early hours of the night. The girl who stood and stared outside the dilapidated command post whispered in her heart, her long hair scattered on her shoulders fluttering in the autumn breeze of the night, glowing golden in the cold moonlight.
As the current supreme commander of the front line, she is facing the embarrassing situation of no one to use, and the admirals who were originally ordered to guard the front line also choose to flee one by one. She thought that the front line would fall so easily, but now the appearance of the other party gave her great hope, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, illuminating the whole world with a burning light.
Bismarck, I can fight with you again, the girl clenched her fists and said hard in her heart.
"Commander Richelieu, aren't we going to greet you?" Prince Eugen, who was standing on the side, asked in a whisper, looking at the huge ship that was gradually docking in the distance, and looked at the blonde girl beside her with surprise.
"There's no need, we're on the front line here, and even if there's a welcome ceremony, it's only the sound of a cannon." Richelieu said coldly that she was now the commander of the front line, not a welcome lady, and she thought she couldn't do this kind of bureaucratic sycophancy.
"However, will this leave a bad impression on the other party." Prince Eugen was a little worried, she knew that human beings, especially those in official positions, would care about such pomp and circumstance, which is what they call face, and if there was no welcome ceremony, she was afraid that the other party would leave a very bad impression on Richelieu.
"Since Bismarck chose him, I don't think he cares about this kind of thing, and if I'm wrong, it only proves that Bismarck has looked away." Richelieu said, "Now that the fighting situation on the front line is so severe, and every shipwreck is guarding the islands in this sea, there is no time to give the new Admiral a welcome ceremony." She said as she walked in the direction where the ship had docked, the tricolored skirt behind her rustling in the wind.
Although she will not hold any welcome ceremony, there will still be a minimum of respect for the other party. She's not a whisker slapper, she's just a shipwreck who fights for the hope of humanity.

Jiqi stood at the bow of the ship and quietly looked at the isolated island illuminated by the lighthouse in front of him, and the dilapidated wooden house above stood in the autumn wind. According to Packa, this is now the command post of the entire front line, and the original costly castle has disappeared into the distance, occupied by countless deep-sea creatures.
And the girl standing next to the command post is the current front-line commander - the battleship Richelieu, the battleship named after the French archbishop, with the last glory of France. He had heard Bismarck mention the commander before he came, and her evaluation of the other party was only four wordsβshe was resolute and resolute, and she was a shipwreck who never paid attention to formality, so she also offended many nobles, and this time she was sent to the most dangerous front to fight.
The powerful ship's mother was sent to such a place just because of the nobleman's family, and it seems that the whole world has been completely corrupted. While quietly waiting for the giant ship to anchor and dock, he looked at the girl walking towards him, and sighed coldly in his heart.
The slender gangway was slowly lowered, and Ji Qi went down the ladder, half a step behind him was Packa, and at the back were the shipwives led by the secretary ship Lexington.
In this battle, Noah's Ark still stayed in the town guard mansion to take care of the family according to the convention. In addition to the blowing snow fantasy in the destroyer, the other girls also gathered to be left behind, and in order to take care of them, the newly built Helena also chose to stay, taking care of the stupid Quincy and Hatsuyuki.
Most of the people who went to sea with Jiqi were shipwives who had experienced countless battles, and the heaviest responsibility among them was not Bismarck or Saratoga, but Sirius, a girl who didn't like to talk, who was responsible for the air defense of the entire fleet.
At first, Tirpitz, a little otaku, also wanted to be lazy and play games in the town guard's mansion, but due to the obscenity of her sister Bismarck and the threat of using the comics of the whole room, it was basically that if you didn't go to sea, the whole set of manhu would have to say goodbye to you or something.
Therefore, she also had to go to sea with her, so when Jiqi saw the cute girl with pink hair on the boat today, the other party always pouted and complained to herself, and her face was full of reluctance.
However, according to her sister Bismarck, Tirbitz was actually very powerful, not inferior to her in any way, but he was too lazy to go to sea. This time it was supposed to be a special training, prepared to eliminate her laziness.
Jiqi turned his head to look at the girl who had adjusted her mood, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
"Hello Admiral, I'm Front Commander Richelieu." The girl standing under the gangway said loudly, her straight body like an unbending pine, revealing the unique temperament of a soldier.
"Hello, I'm the Admiral Jiqi of the Jiqi Town Guard, and I'm the Admiral who came to reinforce this time." Ji Qi nodded slightly, but the other party didn't stretch out his hand, and he had to simplify the etiquette of meeting.
Sure enough, as Bismarck said, she was a vigorous and resolute girl, and Jiqi nodded silently in her heart.
"Thank you very much for your reinforcements, Admiral, in fact, the current situation on the front line is not optimistic." Prince Eugen on the side said with a smile, his red eyes not stealing a glance at Chief Bismarck who was standing behind the young man.
"We're here for the battle on the front." Paccar chimed in, "This one is the best of all the admirals at the moment, and with his help I think we should be able to reclaim all the lost territories as we hope." β
Richelieu looked at the very young boy in front of him and frowned slightly. She learned the other party's age from Prince Eugen's mouth, and it was less than a year after graduating from the academy, which means that the other party had only been an adult for a long time. Can such a young admiral be called the best? I'm afraid it's another one sent by some kind of nobleman, the gold-plated brother who came to the front line.
She snorted slightly coldly and sighed in her heart. "May I ask this admiral, have you ever been in battle?" Richelieu questioned mercilessly, as a commander, she naturally knew that what was needed most on the front line now was a commander with real materials, not this kind of noble son.
"Commander Richelieu, are you doubting Admiral's qualifications?" Paccar understood it, and the subtext of the other party's words was that this was a front line with death, not a park where you, a nobleman, walked. If we hadn't even participated in the battle, we would have gone home as soon as possible, so as not to drag us back.
"So Commander Richelieu thinks my Admiral doesn't deserve the best name?" Lexington stepped forward and asked, his blue pupils shining with thin anger.
She knew that the other party was the commander who decided everything now, but she must not belittle her own admiral like this. She herself knows best whether she is good or not.
"Lexington?" Richelieu looked at the ship's ladies standing behind the boy and laughed coldly. Although she doesn't know if the other party has experienced the baptism of battle, judging from the luxurious lineup, it is not inferior to some super-large town guard mansions. "What is needed on the front line now is a commander with real command ability, not a rookie who has never even been on the battlefield."
"Whether it's a rookie or not will naturally know when he fights, and Commander Richelieu doesn't need to be in such a hurry to draw conclusions." The cat-eared girl in the military uniform replied coldly, she had seen the scene of Jiqi using the talent of the Admiral, and naturally knew that he was worthy of the best name. She looked at Richelieu, a former comrade-in-arms, and continued: "And I believe in my choice, my Admiral Bismarck is naturally the best one. β
"Since you say so, then the only way to uncover the result is to fight." Richelieu shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
Although she didn't know what charm this young admiral had to attract so many powerful ship ladies to follow, she could at least know one thing, the other party was different from other admirals, those eyes that were as calm as a lake did not make any waves because of her words, and still flowed silently.
Maybe Bismarck was right, she looked at the girl in front of her, who was always smiling, and whispered in her heart.
